  HERE & THERE in the HEADLINES kSSSSOS@ ~ SAAssAA9NA’ ITALY, confronted with internal diff ficulties, continues it’s war against Ethiopia with apparent success, al though little credence can be given reports emanating from the war zone, as no dispatches can reach the out side void without first passing through the hands of one or the other of the combatants. Pressed by lack of room and by economic difficulties, Italy needs more colonies in order to give it’s citizens breathing space and to acquire natural resources for it’s industries. With the other nations of the world keeping a protecting hand over many of the small nations, Ethiopia offers Italy its only chance of expansion. But even such small nut as Eth opia may prove too hard one to crack, as other nations apply economic sanctions against Italy in an effort to stop aggression before it extends beyond the borders of the African enpire. Whether or not their efforts will succeed can only be matter Of conlecture, as Italy is undoubtedly prepared to stake everything on this ven ture, and most of the other nations are apparently hesitant to proceed beyond bluff. England alone may be willing to take extreme steps to stop the conflict. GREECE, weary of the trials and tribulations of it’s republican form of government, cheered a royalist coup detat last week as General Kondylis seized the reins Of government in a swift and bloodless stroke. The nations lawmakers then decreed the return of the monarchy, with former King George returning from his exile in England to resume the relns of government. n Despite the fact that everywhere in the nation the move achieved great rejoicing, the assennblymen decided to hold a nationwide plebiscite Novem- Der 3 to give the people a chance to express their opinions. CANADIANS, going to the polls in a nationwide election Monday, swept the incumbent Conservative party out of office, giving the Liberals, under the leadership Of Mackenzie King, who once before served as premier OF Can ada, the greatest parliamentary major ity in the nations history. The incoming party favors free trade policies and reciprocal agreement with the United States. The victory is hailed by the Premier-elect as conshutting a great deliverance from one hand government, from mistaken pol icies and autocratic leadership, and is acclaimed as triumph for broad prine ciples and policies.
